    The Bottom Line: "Great"

    Having them be the 12th best hospital was a great idea. It brings in a long term problem they will have to deal with. It was funny to see Hahn try to improve her teaching skills and to see Bailey finding a way to steal patients from Mercy West. I also liked how the storyline with the cheating husbands related to Meredith's doubts about having a happily ever after. Meredith's complaining got to be a little much, but it was great to see Christina tell her to stop. The icicle thing may have been a bit much but it went with the whole fairy tale theme. I loved that Christina finally got a bit of a love interest. George and Lexi are such a cute couple. I love storylines when one person is in love but the other is clueless. Having Mark talking to Lexi about this made it hillarious and entertaining. I just love Hahn and Callie together. I loved how Callie was trying new things to help her patient walk again and then she had to do the same thing with Hahn. Izzie and Alex can be a bit repetitive, but it is good to see that at least something is going on between them. Sometimes I wish Alex would just grow up, whenever he gets close, he just goes back to his old ways. Anyways, I guess the Denny thing was to show what the fairy tale ending would have been. Some people complained about Rose in this episode, but I appreciated her reaction. Anyone would react that way if their boyfriend left them for someone else. One problem I had with this episode is that they tried to squeeze in too many patients. I was kind of losing track of who was who and I would have liked to know more about each person's story.

    The Bottom Line: "Good"

    I don't really like that one of the tribes is much weaker than the other. It was interesting the first time when Stephanie was the only one left in her tribe, but I don't want to see it happen again. There also isn't really anything that makes this season new and exciting. The one new thing I liked about it was that they had to chose between looking for the hidden immunity idol and getting food. The tribe dynamics were also a little boring. Of course they got rid of the weak old lady and the girl who wouldn't talk to anyone. I did find it a little interesting that they got rid of Michelle the first weak and ruined there chances of winning. I also enjoyed marveling over how riddiculus Jillian was. A positive attitude is always good but no need to be so positive about losing.

    The Bottom Line: "Superb"

    I hadn't seen this show in such a long time and I mostly decided to watch it out of obligation. I started out not too focused on it but I ended up watching closely and needing to know what would happen. The medical cases with the ethical issues were great. I had no idea how they would end and it was really interesting to see what they would decide to do. There was a lot of times were I was shocked by what was going on and it kept me on the edge of my seat. Going broke was also good, it's good to have a bigger ongoing problem for the characters to deal with. A lot of people were complaining that the main characters were too focused on their love lives and not enough on being a doctor. But this is kind of how hospitals are. The doctors are so used to all the cases and it is nothing out of the ordinary.

    The hands represent friendship, the crown represents loyalty... and the heart...

    there wasn't room for the entire quote or the part I wanted in the title... but here's the whole quote... It's said by Angel in Surprise.

    My people -- before I was changed -- they exchanged this as a sign of devotion. It's a Claddagh ring. The hands represent friendship, the crown represents loyalty... and the heart... Well, you know... Wear it with the heart pointing towards you. It means you belong to somebody. Like this.

    My parents were in Dublin so I asked them to buy me a claddagh ring I've wanted one ever since I saw Surprise for the very first time Mine looks a little like this:

    That's really all that I have to say for now I'll try to find out when I get my computer back but until then I won't be here much... so i'm REALLY sorry for not commenting on your blogs! I'll read them when I get my computer back though. Have a great week

    Run like the wind...

    It seems like I have had very little time to come here anymore. Right now I have a ton of homework to do but I decided to come here and procrastinate instead. It seems like I should have alot to say since i havent been here in so long but I really dont. I spend most of my time either at school or at work so I dont have any fun storys to tell. T.V. season has started back up. Im enjoying OTH its really good this season (hmm that might have something to do with Leyton being back together ) . I never cry when watching tv but the first ER episode of the season made me cry so much. I hate it when main characters die. I cant believe its the final season of ER (and probably OTH to) I have been watching ER from the start and it seems like I grew up with that show, which I guess in a way I did since i was so young when it started and im not 21.... hmm I cant really think of anything else to say.

    Episode Ratings

    Wow, I haven't done a blog in a long time.

    Anyways, when I first found out that you could only rate episodes a whole number or a .5 I was annoyed since it would be hard to be specific about it. Now that I think about it, it may actually be better. I used to give everything between an eight and nine so this will just spread it out more. Anyways here's my new criteria; it's mostly for me, but you can use it when reading my reviews or if you want to get ideas on how to rate episodes.

    10 not only one of the best episodes of the show but there was something extra special about it
    9.5 one of the best episodes of the show
    9 good, something special about it
    8.5 better than average
    8 average
    7.5 ok, but it was kind of boring
    7 the storylines weren't very good
    6.5 there was something about this episode that I really didn't like
    6 this episode was bad
    5 this was really bad, what were the writters thinking
    4 this episode was so bad that it was starting to make me mad
    2.5 it's ruining the series for me
    1 because of this episode I'm not going to watch this show anymore
